I may be hitting you up on your offer of help ("Damn, why'd I offer that?") haha.

I love funk/soul bass/drum grooves. I am not that historically versed, though, so thats why I'm here. I appreciate all help/advice anyone feels like they want to give me. Trully.
What type of covers do you guys perform MA?
I mean, Ive seen bands that struggle with the style & genre they think they should do in order to please the crowd, not to suggest that you do MA.
I was just asking, conversation.
From my experience whatever that is worth, do whatever genre & style that is your personal and other band members favorite style.
There are just so many different styles to choose from in just funk alone..lol.
I just wouldnt have any ideal where to start by suggesting anything.
I my self, am trying to get the guitar parts down with Your Love Is Strong by The Rolling Stones 1994, not only is Keith Richards guitar important but no more than getting Ron Woods part close to perfect also.
Its not a hard song to cover musically, but the basic simplicity is what I admire about it most.
This song is about as funky as you would want with Charlie Watts on drums and Darryl Jones driving the Bass guitar.
Jaggers vocals are easy to cover as far as the lead vocals are concerned.
Well..later MA, just thought I would discuss a little music, (Have a good one).
